Withdrawal / Transfers

In order to withdraw a student from the Collinsville School District, a parent/guardian should follow the steps outlined below:

Elementary Schools and Dorris Intermediate School

1. The parent or legal guardian of the student should visit the main office of the current school to inform the office staff of the intended withdrawal or transfer. The following information should be provided in writing:

Student’s full name

Reason for withdrawal (transfer, move out of state, etc.)

Forwarding address (if known)

Name, address and telephone number of the transfer school that the student will be attending (if known)

2. Textbooks, library books, athletic uniforms and any other school-owned property that has been assigned to the student must be returned to the school at the time of withdrawal or transfer notification.

3. Financial obligations to the district (including, but not limited to, unpaid fees, overdue library books and/or lost textbooks) must be settled. A parent/guardian may request a partial refund of fees using the Student Instructional Material Fee Refund Form (located in the Media Library above) if the account is in good standing at the time of the withdrawal/transfer.
